The basket holds (room-) bookings and articles. It can include any number of bookings and articles.

The invoice is a printable version of the basket. For this you can define any number of text templates (such as receipt, confirmation, invoice, ...) in different languages​​.

Invoice numbers are unique (each invoice number is used only once).
The invoice numbers are continuous by creation date but not by payment date.

When you delete guests or baskets, the corresponding invoice numbers are deleted as well. If you need the invoice numbers to be without interruption (e.g. for the tax authority), you should not delete baskets. Instead only delete the contained bookings and leave a note like 'Storno'. You might also want to define a Status called 'Storno' and assign it to cancelled reservations.
